Work Orders Overview The Work Orders system allows you to integrate all aspects of creating and processing work orders with the rest of your business operations. It is specifically designed to handle small, short-term tasks that are part of a major project. It is also designed for quick setup, simple cost accounting, and basic scheduling for projects that can be completed quickly. You can use the Work Orders system to keep these projects as organized and well-managed as your long-term projects. Industry Information for Work Orders The term work order has numerous meanings and a wide variety of applications. The following definition is from the Educational Society for Resource Management dictionary (APICS), Tenth Edition: "Work Order: 1) An order to the machine shop for tool manufacture or equipment maintenance; not to be confused with a manufacturing order. Synonym: work ticket. 2) An authorization to start work on an activity (for example, maintenance) or product. This definition suggests that work orders are more widely used for maintenance functions. However, companies often use the same definition for other activities, including service requests and manufacturing activities. Other terms for which this definition applies can include job order, work request, service request, or shop order. Regardless of the terminology, the concept is the same. Generating a work order is the activity that starts the process of completing a task. The work order identifies the work that needs to be done, and the information that it collects captures the history of the work that is performed. The Work Orders system can be used to track the following: Manufacturing of parts Equipment repair Project management Customer service calls Competitive Advantage The following are typical problems or issues for using work orders, the strategy that will resolve these problems, and the return on investment. How do I integrate the Work Orders system with other systems? Work order features are available in many of the PeopleSoft EntepriseOne systems, including Shop Floor Management and Capital Asset Management. In addition, you can use work orders to manage small projects in the Job Cost system. 4
How do I indicate the parts and materials that are required to complete a work order task? What types of information can I print on work orders? You can attach a list of parts and materials to any work order. The list provides information for parts and materials to be committed or issued from inventory. You can generate purchase orders directly from the list that is attached to the work order. The Work Orders system integrates with the Inventory Management system. This integration eliminates the need to maintain individual inventory systems to support different groups. Integration reduces setup labor costs, ensures the accuracy of your information, and eliminates the need to purchase parts that might already be available. You can print work orders that include text, part lists or bills of materials, and routings. You can also include additional information using standard descriptions, user defined codes, record types, and so on. The Work Order system provides online and printed information that workers can use to help eliminate errors. How can I reuse past work order information? How do I ensure that an approval process for work orders exists? How do I control and track the progress of a work order? You can use a parent work order to copy information to a new work order. On the new work order, you can add any unique information. Using a parent work order reduces labor costs and provides consistency between similar work orders and tasks. Workflow Management provides the ability to create automated processes that can perform various work order activities. For example, the system can automatically send a message to a supervisor for his or her approval when the cost of a work order exceeds a defined amount. You can also use workflow to prompt you about other events, such as committing inventory to a work order. Workflow Management ensures that you receive the appropriate approvals before you begin work. This reduces time that is spent on invalid work orders and communicates activities to the appropriate people. Work order activity rules can control a work order lifecycle to ensure that it progresses in a controlled manner. Work order activity rules can eliminate the mishandling or the improper movement of work orders, which prevents any work from being performed or parts from being issued for unapproved work orders, thereby eliminating labor costs and wasted parts. Can I associate work orders with a project? Using Project Setup, you can create a project hierarchy to group work orders as a project. You can also use a master version of a project work order to generate work orders that use the same basic information. You can use project hierarchies to reduce input labor and provide consistency between similar tasks in a project. Project hierarchies simplify project and task tracking and improve project management. 5
How can I track work orders? You can track work orders in many ways, such as by: Customer number Parent work order number Project number Job or business unit Cross-referenced piece of equipment The Work Order system simplifies management of similar or related orders. The system reduces the amount of time that you spend searching for and tracking work orders. System Integration The Work Orders system complements the Job Cost system. While you rely on the Job Cost system for long-term projects in which budget comparisons and final cost projections are important, the Work Orders system is best suited for short-term projects with minimal transactions. In many cases, you can benefit from using both systems. In addition to the Job Cost system, you can also link the Work Orders system to other PeopleSoft EnterpriseOne systems. For example, you can link to the Payroll system to enter charges for work orders and conduct detailed time reviews of work orders by project, person, and detailed task. You can also link to the Inventory Management system to allocate parts and supplies to work orders. The Work Orders system works closely with the following PeopleSoft EnterpriseOne systems: Address Book General Accounting Payroll Human Capital Management Inventory Management Procurement Accounts Payable Capital Asset Management Job Cost Service Billing 6
Work Order Management Features The Work Orders system provides the user with a set of functionality that steeamlines creating and processing work orders. You can create work orders quickly and online. You can also track them by status and route them for approval automatically. The system also provides project management features, such as budget and estimate controls as well as project tracking and reporting. Quick Creation of Work Orders You can create a single work order or a group of work orders quickly and easily, with minimal preplanning. To save time and reduce the possibility of errors, you can also use parent work orders and processing options when you set up work orders so that the system enters much of the information for you, based on the parent work order. Approvals for Work Orders You can establish approval controls for a work order based on a variety of criteria, including work order type, status, and the monetary amount involved. For example, you can specify that all maintenance work orders must be approved before any work can begin. You can also specify who must approve the work orders and the threshold monetary amount for which each person is responsible. The threshold is the amount above which the person specified must approve the work order. If the amount is less than the threshold, the approval is not required. You can also review the approval status of a work order. Activity Rules for Work Orders You can define work order activity rules that differ by work order type. You can use these rules to track a work order through its life cycle, review work orders that apply to certain procedures, and prepare reports that are based on the current status of a work order. You can also define the flow of statuses (steps) that a work order must follow during its life cycle. In addition, you can also define the following: Whether the work order is active or inactive at a particular status Whether and when to lock the work order to prevent changes Paperless Processing You can save paper as you track your work orders and projects with the work orders programs. You enter work orders online and perform most of the subsequent processing without having to rely on printed documents. Quick Location of Work Orders You can easily locate a work order using a variety of information. For example, you can review all of the work orders that are assigned to a particular person, location, or project. You can limit your search for a work order by using any combination of the following information: The job or business unit The address book numbers of the originator, customer, manager, or supervisor The life cycle status of a work order 7
Any combination of the user defined category codes The type of work order The priority assigned to a work order Start and completion dates Simple Budget and Estimate Controls You can use the work orders programs to track the simple estimate and budget requirements of a work order. For example, you can enter budget information and track the information throughout the work order's life cycle. In addition, you can use a variety of reports to compare estimates with actual information. Multiple Control Dates You can track each work order according to control dates that you define. You can define any of the following control dates: The transaction date (the date when a work order is entered into the system) The start date The planned completion date The actual completion date The assignment date (the date when the person who is responsible for the work receives the work order) Multiple Levels of Responsibility You can assign several levels of responsibility to each work order on the Work Order Entry form, such as: The job or business unit that is charged for the work order The originator of the work order The manager The supervisor You can also use category codes to assign levels of responsibility to work orders. You can review all of the work orders that are assigned to a particular person or location. Unlimited Narrative Remarks You can describe work orders briefly by using two or three words, or you can provide much more detail. You can also arrange work orders into groups and enter different types of information in each group, such as: Expected actions Actual operations performed Required tools Procedures for completing the work You define the record types that are appropriate to your organization. 8
Project Setup and Tracking You can create, organize, update, and track small projects and all of their associated work orders with ease and efficiency. You can manage projects according to the following information: The customer number The parent work order number (project number) The job or business unit Flexible Project Management Reporting You can manage projects using the following reports: Cost Summary Cost Detail Work Order Summary Detailed Task Description Project Status Summary Provides cost summary information, such as estimated and actual costs for work orders. Provides cost detail information, such as individual transaction details for work orders. Provides summary information about work orders, such as hours planned and actual hours charged as of a specified date. Provides detailed information about the work orders in a project. Provides summary and detailed status information for all work order projects that are assigned to a specific manager.

Work Order Creation You create a work order to formally request work that is to be performed, such as maintenance work. By creating a work order, you also communicate important information about a task or a short-term project to others who are involved. The Work Orders system creates a master record for every work order that you enter into the system. The master record consists of basic information that defines the work order, such as the work order number and description. You can also enter additional descriptive information to further identify the work order, such as special instructions. You can create a new work order by entering all of the necessary task information on the Enter Work Orders form. You can also create a work order by copying the information from an existing work order for those tasks that are similar to other tasks that you perform. In addition, you can create a project hierarchy of work orders for those tasks that are related to each other and are subordinate to a larger task. Creating Work Orders Work orders communicate information about unique tasks to others who are involved. When you enter a work order, the system creates a master record of that work order. A master record exists for every work order that you enter in the Work Orders system. The master record includes basic information, such as: Work order number Brief description Category codes Charge-to business unit Type of work order Status of work order The system stores master records in the Work Order Master File table (F4801). You use the Scheduling Workbench program (P48201) to search the Work Order Master table. You can use processing options to have the system enter default information, such as type, priority, status, and so on, in a new work order. You can also use processing options to assign the manager and supervisor, if you defined them when you set up the system. You can assign record types to a work order and then enter descriptive information into each record type to note the specific details about the task. For example, you might want to include special instructions and the parts and tools that are needed to complete the task. To further define the work orders in your system, you can enter supplemental data. Supplemental data is useful for reporting and tracking work order details that are not included in the record types. 11
You can also use a parent work order to create a work order. After entering a parent work order number in the Parent Number field on the Enter Work Orders form, the system updates any fields without values with the values from the parent work order. When you leave the Parent Number field blank, the system uses the work order number. To use a work order as a parent work order, leave its Parent Number field blank. Note You cannot delete a work order if it has any account ledger transactions associated with it or is used as a parent work order. You can, however, inactivate a work order by entering a code in the Subledger Inactive field on Enter Work Orders. A value other than blank indicates that the work order is inactive. Entering Basic Work Order Information Depending on the complexity of your organization, you can create work orders that include only the most basic information required by the system, such as the description and business unit. Alternatively, you can include a variety of explanations, scheduling dates, and control codes. You can also enter budgeting information to help you track costs and resources. You can assign up to 10 category codes to a work order. Use category codes to further identify and organize work orders that have similar characteristics. This is especially useful for analyzing and reporting on work order information from a variety of perspectives, such as shop, division, and type of work. You can also analyze work order costs according to category codes. The system provides several predefined category codes. You can use these or customize your own category codes. You define all values for each category code. In addition, you can assign responsible people, such as an originator and a supervisor, to a work order. You can also specify a search cross-reference that the system uses to search for work orders. For example, if you enter an equipment number on the work order, the system enters the parent equipment number in the Search Cross-Reference field. Note Many of the fields on Enter Work Orders are optional, but information in these fields is particularly useful when you search for a work order or group of work orders. You can use processing options to direct the system to enter default values in several fields, such as address book fields, category code fields, approval type fields, and manager and supervisor fields, if you defined them during system setup. You can also retrieve numerous default values from a parent work order, if you specify one. For example, you can use values from a parent work order to provide default values for the following fields: Work Order Type Start Date Planned Completion Date 12

Working with Supplemental Data You can enter supplemental data to further define the work orders in your system. Supplemental data is useful for reporting and tracking work order details that are not included in the record types, such as a data type for safety procedures. You can use the following formats when you define supplemental data for work orders: C (Code) N (Narrative) You can define column titles and enter information, such as dates and amounts, in the columns. You can enter free-form text, such as notes and memos. You can attach narrative information to code information. After you enter supplemental data, you can use the following formats to review the information: By data type By work order You can review additional information based on a supplemental data type. For example, if you set up a data type for budget estimates, you can review a list of all work orders that have been assigned this data type. You can review additional information based on work order numbers. This process enables you to review all of the supplemental data for a work order. Prerequisite Set up the supplemental data types for the work orders in your system. To add supplemental data to work orders From the Work Order Supplemental Data menu (G4813), choose Data Entry. 1.

This is the user defined code 00, type WT, which indicates the type of data being entered into the supplemental database. Examples are PO for Pending or DT for Details. Type Data Copying Parent Work Orders You can use a parent work order to quickly create a new work order. On the new work order, you need to complete the Parent Number field and those fields that require unique information. If you leave the remaining fields blank, the system completes them with values from the parent work order. For example, you might need to perform maintenance on a machine that is similar to the maintenance that you performed on another machine. You can assign the previous machine's work order as the parent of the new work order. The system automatically enters the appropriate information from the parent work order into the new work order. You can also use the Copy button on Work With Work Orders form to copy parent work orders. When you copy an existing work order, the system assigns a unique number to the new work order. Otherwise, the following information remains unchanged: All information from the Work Order Details form Parts list Labor routing instructions Record types You can also use a parent work order as the basis for creating a work order. The system uses the information stored in the master record for the parent work order to automatically enter the basic work order information, category codes, and record type information into the new work order. Use this method when you need to group work orders that share information that is used for reporting and cost accounts. Prerequisite Ensure that the processing option selection for the Work Order Entry program (P48012) is set to the program that you want to call for the purpose of copying a work order. 30
To copy parent work orders From the Work Order Processing menu (G4811), choose Scheduling Workbench. 1. On Work With Work Orders, click Add. 2. On Enter Work Orders, complete the following field in the header area: Description 3. On the General tab, complete the following field: Parent Number 4. Complete any fields that must contain unique information, including the following fields: Tax Expl Code Tax Rate/Area 5. Leave the remaining fields blank so that the system can complete them with values from the parent work order. 6. Click OK. The system provides default information from the parent work order for those fields that you left blank. It also copies the parts list, routing instructions, and record types from the original work order to the new work order. 7. Click Cancel. 8. On Work With Work Orders, locate the new work order. The work order is identical to the one that you copied, except that it has a unique parent order number. You can revise any of the fields that contain information from the parent work order and enter any additional information, such as category codes and record types. Creating Work Orders for a Project For a group of maintenance tasks that are interrelated and subordinate to a larger task, such as a plant shutdown or the retooling of a manufacturing line, you can combine the tasks into a project. Setting up a project is especially useful when you need to monitor the day-to-day details of a project within the context of the project as a whole. Creating work orders for a project is similar to creating work orders with parent information. However, when you use the Project Setup program (P48015) to create the work orders, you can create several work orders at the same time and group them into a hierarchy that is subordinate to an existing parent work order. The parent work order represents the project, and each work order that is assigned to the parent represents a task in the project. For each work order in the project, the system automatically enters the basic work order information, category codes, and record type information from the parent work order. After you create the project hierarchy, you can enter additional information that is specific to each work order. Use processing options to specify which work order detail form appears when you want to enter additional work order information. You can then enter additional information about each work order, such as status comments or an extended description of the task. 31
To create work orders for a project From the Simple Project Management menu (G4812), choose Project Setup. 1. On Project Setup, complete the following field in the header area: Parent W.O. No 2. Complete the following optional fields in the header area: Customer Number For project work orders, use the customer number in combination with either the job or business unit, or the parent work order number. If you use only the customer number, you must use the Enter Work Orders form to enter all of the necessary work order information for the individual work orders in the project. Job or BU If you create work orders for a project using the job or business unit, the system completes all of the default information that is related to project cost. You must use the Enter Work Orders form to enter any additional work order information that you want to associate with the individual work orders for the project. 3. For each work order in the project, complete the following fields in the detail area: Phase Task Start Date Planned Complete Hours Manager 4. Click OK. The system creates the project for the work orders that you entered. 5. To locate and revise any of the unique information for your project work orders, choose Project Setup from the menu again, and then, on Project Setup, click Find. 6. Choose a work order and then choose WO Detail from the Row menu. 32
7. On Enter Work Orders, revise any fields that must contain unique information (rather than default information from the parent work order). 8. Enter any additional information, such as category codes and record types, to the work order, and then click OK. 9. Repeat steps 6 through 8 for each project work order that you need to revise. Processing Options for Project Setup (P48015) Processing 1. Enter a '1' to default the manager and supervisor based on the values for category codes 1, 2 or 3. 2. Enter the defaults for the following fields: a. Type b. Priority c. Beginning Status d. Phase ( Categorie Code 1) e. Categorie Code 2 f. Categories Code 3 Program 1. Choose the work order entry program to call when the option exit is used: '2' = Equipment Work Order (P48011) '3' = Work Order Entry (SAR) (P48012) '4' = Manufacturing Work Order (P48013) '5' = Project Task Details (P48014)(default) 33
Work Order Processing You can review existing work orders and update work order information as necessary. For example, as the work progresses, you can do the following: Approve a work order and allow work to begin. Update the life cycle information for the work order to indicate the progress of the work. For example, you can indicate that parts have been ordered. Track the costs that are associated with the work order, such as parts and labor costs. The life cycle of a work order consists of the steps or statuses through which a work order must pass, indicating the progress of the work. For example, the life cycle of a work order can include the following statuses: Request for work to be performed Approval for work to proceed Waiting for materials Work in progress Work complete Closed After you create work orders, you can perform a variety of tasks to manage the work orders as they move through the work order life cycle. For example, you can do the following: Search for specific work orders or groups of work orders. Revise information, such as start date, priority, status, and so on, as work orders move through the life cycle; and demands on your maintenance organization change. Review information about the parts lists for work orders. Print copies of work orders for use by maintenance people. Change the status of a work order to complete, indicating that the maintenance tasks have been performed. 34
Locating Work Orders Within a typical organization, hundreds of work orders might await processing. You can use specific search criteria in the Scheduling Workbench program (P48201) to limit your search for particular work orders. You use the information that you know about specific work orders to narrow your search. For example, you can locate all work orders that share the same criteria, such as the following: A job or business unit The person who originates the work orders The person who manages or supervises the work to be performed User defined information that is associated with the work orders, such as category codes and work order types Dates associated with the work orders, such as start date and planned completion date You can use any combination of search criteria to locate work orders with similar characteristics. For example, you can locate all work orders for a business unit that are assigned to a particular supervisor. You can also locate all maintenance work orders that are scheduled to start on a particular date. The more information that you enter, the more you narrow your search to a specific work order or group of work orders. After you locate a work order, you can use the Scheduling Workbench program to access a variety of forms and complete multiple tasks with a specific work order. For example, after you locate a work order, you can access the form for approving work orders directly from the Scheduling Workbench, so that you do not have to access additional menus. Cross-System Functionality You must have the Capital Asset Management system in addition to the Work Orders system to access the following programs from the Scheduling Workbench program (P48201): Work With Unscheduled Maintenance (P13UM) Work With Equipment Work Orders (P13220) Capacity Message Summary (P3301) PM Backlog (P12071) Work Order Parts Detail (P17730) Work Order Labor Detail (P17732) Work Order Inventory Issues (P31113) You must have the Procurement system to access the Purchase Orders program (P4310). To locate a work order From the Work Order Processing menu (G4811), choose Scheduling Workbench. 35
On Work With Work Orders, complete any of the following fields to locate a work order and click Find. Equipment Number Business Unit Subsidiary Parent W.O. No Alternatively, you can complete any of the fields on any of the tabs to locate work orders. 36
Working with Work Order Approvals You can review, approve, or reject work orders. After a work order is created, the system sends an electronic message to notify the person who is responsible for reviewing and approving the work order. When you approve a work order, the system then sends an electronic mail message to the next person on the work order approval route. If you reject a work order, the system sends an electronic mail message to the originator of the work order. You can use the Scheduling Workbench program (P48201) to review these messages. You can also place a work order on hold if you want to approve or reject the work order at a later time. The system does not send any messages when you place a work order on hold. During the approval process, the system generates an audit record for approvals and rejections. If you must reject a work order after initially approving it, the system creates an audit record for the rejection and stores the original approval record for historical purposes. Approving Work Orders You can use the Scheduling Workbench program (P48201) to review and approve work orders. You can also directly access these work orders from the Employee Queue Manager program (P012503) on the Workflow Management menu (G02). Prerequisites Set up user profiles for all people who are responsible for approving work orders. Verify that all people who are responsible for approving work orders are included in the work order approval routing. To approve work orders From the Work Order Processing menu (G4811), choose Scheduling Workbench. 1. On Work With Work Orders, complete any of the following fields and click Find: Equipment Number Business Unit Subsidiary Parent W.O. No Order Number Alternatively, you can complete any of the fields on any of the tabs to locate work orders. 2. Choose the work order that you want to approve, and, from the Row menu, choose Order Processing and then WO Approval. The system displays all work orders for which approvals are pending on the Work Center. 3. On Work Center, use the messaging system to approve or reject the work order and to route it to the next responsible individual. 37
Reviewing the Approval History of Work Orders You can use Scheduling Workbench to monitor the status and progress of work orders. You can review the current approval status of any work order in your system. When you enter a work order number in the Scheduling Workbench program (P48201), the Process Task Monitor form displays the following: The person who approved or reviewed the work order The date on which the work order was approved or reviewed The status of the work order, such as approved or in process You can also review any notes about the work order. To review the approval history of work orders From the Work Order Processing menu (G4811), choose Scheduling Workbench. 1. On Work With Work Orders, complete any of the following fields and click Find: Equipment Number Business Unit Subsidiary Parent W.O. No Order Number Alternatively, you can complete any of the fields on any of the tabs to locate work orders. 2. Choose the work order to review, and, from the Row menu, choose Order Processing and then WO Approval Audit. 3. On Process Task Monitor, review any notes that the approver might have entered for the work order, and then click Close. Revising Work Orders You can revise work orders as they move through the work order life cycle. The life cycle of a work order consists of the steps or statuses through which a work order must pass, indicating the progress of the work. You can revise a work order as information changes or new information becomes available. You can revise any information except the work order number. If you use work order approvals, you might not be able to change some life cycle statuses, depending on how your system is set up. Some of the information you might revise includes: Life cycle statuses Planned start and completion dates Percentage of work completed Estimated hours to complete the work 38
For example, you can change the start date of work orders if you do not have the labor resources or parts that you need to complete the work. You can use search criteria to narrow your search to the specific work orders that you want to revise. This narrowed search is especially useful when you need to revise the information in a single field for a group of related work orders. To revise work orders From the Work Order Processing menu (G4811), choose Scheduling Workbench. 1. On Work With Work Orders, to limit your search to a specific work order or group of work orders, complete any combination of fields on any of the tabs and click Find. 2. Choose the work order that you need to revise and click Select. 3. On Enter Work Orders, make any necessary revisions to the work order information. 4. To update life cycle information, complete the following field on the General tab and click OK: W.O. Status If you located multiple work orders in step 1, repeat steps 2 through 4 for each work order that you need to revise. Printing Work Orders You can print work orders when you need a hard copy of a work order or group of work orders. For example, shop personnel might need to print a hard copy of a work order for equipment that is serviced. If you already know the work order number, you can quickly print the work order from Scheduling Workbench. If you need to print multiple work orders, you can use report selection criteria to specify which work orders to print. Printing a Single Work Order You can print a single work order when you need a copy of a work order. For example, shop personnel might need to print a copy of a work order for each piece of equipment that they service. If you already know the work order number, you can quickly print the work order from the Scheduling Workbench program (P48201). You use processing options to specify which version of the Work Order Print program (R17714) that the system uses to print the order. To print a single work order Use one of the following navigations: For the Work Orders system, choose Scheduling Workbench from the Work Order Processing menu (G4811). For the Capital Asset Management system, choose Work Order Entry from the Work Order menu (G1316). For the Service Management system, choose Work Order Entry from the Daily Work Order Processing menu (G1712). 39
1. On Work With Work Orders, to limit your search to a specific work order, complete any combination of fields on any of the tabs and click Find. 2. Choose the work order that you want to print, and then choose Print WO from the Row menu. Printing Multiple Work Orders From the Work Order Processing menu (G4811), choose Work Order Print. You can print multiple work orders by using report selection criteria to specify the work orders that you want to print. You print work orders when you need a hard copy of a group of work orders. When you print work orders, you use data selections to specify which work orders to print or suppress. You then use processing options to specify the information that you want to print, such as whether to suppress dates associated with information about a work order record type, suppress estimated hours associated with work orders, or print equipment messages associated with a piece of equipment on the work order. In addition, you can enter record types to be printed with a work order. You also can specify whether the system changes the status of the work orders at the same time that it prints them. Working with Charges to Work Orders You can charge costs to work orders using any PeopleSoft EnterpriseOne system that creates general ledger transaction records with a subledger type of W. For example, for a particular work order, you can use the Accounts Payable system to charge for travel time and expenses, the Inventory Management system to charge for material costs, and the Payroll or Time and Labor systems to charge for employee time. You enter charges to a work order through a subledger. The subledger stores information in the Account Ledger table (F0911) and the Account Balances table (F0902). You can access the work order information in these tables for project management and cost accounting purposes. For example, using subledger accounting, you can do the following: Review summaries of work order charges by job or business unit Maintain and track costs online from the Work Orders system Review posted and unposted cost transactions for individual work orders Adding Charges to Work Orders You can add charges to a work order whenever you issue parts to the work order. You can also add employee and equipment time to a work order. When you add charges to a work order, the system creates journal entries in the Account Ledger table (F0911). You can add work order charges to any valid account in the Account Master table (F0901). 40
Note You can add charges only to open work orders. You can identify a closed work order by the code in the Subledger Inactive field on the Enter Work Orders form. Any value in this field indicates that the work order is closed. Cross-System Functionality You can add charges to a work order using any PeopleSoft EnterpriseOne system that creates general ledger transaction records with subledgers. Following are some guidelines. Time and Labor; Inventory Management; and Accounts Payable Inventory Management You can access Inventory Management and Accounts Payable by using selections on the Work Order Processing menu. To access Time and Labor, you need to enter the menu number (G05BT1) in the fast path. You must have installed these systems to use them with the Work Orders system. You can use the Inventory Issues program (P4112) to enter charges for inventory and materials for a work order. See Also Issuing Inventory in the Inventory Management Guide Speed Code Entry You can save time and reduce the possibility of data entry error by using speed codes when you add charges to work orders. Speed codes are a quick way of entering an account number that is already in the system so that you do not have to re-enter the information. When you use speed code entry, the system does the following: Updates the account number with the business unit and the cost code (if available) from the work order Updates the Subledger field with the work order number Updates the Type field with a W (work order) The code that you enter in the Account Number field for speed code entry depends on the system that you use to add charges to work orders, as follows: Accounts Payable Enter a back slash, work order number, a period, and an object account number (\WO.object account) Example: \1919.SHOP 41
Inventory Management Enter a back slash, work order number, a period, and an object account number (\WO.object account) Example: \1919.SHOP You must have installed the following systems to use the Inventory Management system: Inventory Base and Order Processing (system 40) Inventory Management (system 41) Time and Labor Enter a back slash, work order number, and a period (\WO.)

Reviewing Charges by Work Order To help you monitor and control the costs that are associated with individual work orders, you can review detailed charges for a work order. For example, for any charge for a work order, you can review the following information: Description of the transaction Account number that was charged Units that are charged, such as hours Amount of the transaction Batch number and the date Person responsible for the transaction Document number and document type Inventory item number or description When you access the cost detail information for a work order, the system displays all general ledger transaction records for the work order. You can view the costs within a range of dates or by a ledger type. If you do not limit your search criteria, the system displays all of the costs that are charged to the work order. Note In the general ledger, the system uses subledger accounting to handle cost accounting for work orders. The work order number is the subledger number, and the subledger type is always W (work order). To review charges by work order From the Simple Project Management menu (G4812), choose Cost Detail. 1. On Work With Work Order Cost, complete the following field: Order Number 2. Complete the following optional fields and click Find: Ledger Type From Thru The system displays details about each work order transaction. 45

Work Order System Setup Before you use the Work Orders system, you need to define certain information that the system uses during processing. Use this information to customize the system for your business needs. Setting Up User Defined Codes for Work Orders User defined codes enable you to customize the Work Orders system for your particular business needs. Although a number of predefined codes are provided with the Work Orders system, you can revise them and set up new codes. After you set up user defined codes, you can assign them to work orders. You can set processing options for the Work Order Entry program (P48201) so that the system assigns default values for user defined codes on work orders. Type Codes (00/TY) Use these codes to group work orders by type, such as emergency work order or preventive maintenance work order. The system displays this classification code field in the Scheduling Workbench program (P48201). The Work Order Processing system includes predefined type code values. If these type codes do not meet your needs, you can modify them or create new ones. Work Order Priority Codes (00/PR) Use these codes to group work orders by priority, such as urgent or low. The system displays this classification code field in the Work with Work Orders program (P48201). Priority codes classify work orders by priority, such as H for high priority and 1 for emergency priority. These codes are for reference only and do not affect the scheduling or planning of work. When displaying work orders using the Work with Work Orders (P48201) program, the Priority processing option on the Process tab controls whether the program highlights the Priority field in a specific color. The color is hard-coded in the Special Handling field of UDC 00/PR, as follows: A value of 1highlights the Priority field in red. A value of 2 highlights the Priority field in yellow. A value of 3 highlights the Priority field in blue. 51
Work Order Status Codes (00/SS) Use these codes to group work orders by current condition. You can update the status code for a work order as work progresses. The system displays this classification code field on a variety of forms related to the life cycle of a work order, such as Work With Work Orders and Work Order Details. Status codes classify work orders by current status in the work order life cycle, such as A for approved and AP for approval pending. You can update the status code for a work order as work progresses. Work Order Category Code 01 (00/W1) Category code 01 is a special four-character user defined code that appears on all work order forms and reports. You can use category code 01 for the work order phase or matter codes. Use phase or matter codes to do the following: Group families of work orders into phases or subcategories for project management and cost account purposes. Group families of work orders on invoices by special matter or explanation code. If you do not want to use category code 01 for phase and matter codes, you can modify the predefined codes or create new ones. Phase or matter codes indicate the implementation phase of the work order, such as 2 for project phase 2. You can use phase codes to group work orders for project management and cost accounting purposes. Additional Work Order Category Codes (00/W2-00/W0) Use category codes 02-10 to customize and further define your work orders. (Category code 10 is UDC table 00/W0.) Category codes 02-10 have no predefined values; they can represent any category or description by which you want to group work orders. For example, you can set up one category code to represent types of problems encountered in the work order process, such as improper installation or design flaws. Another code might represent locations where work is taking place. The system displays the first ten category codes in the Scheduling Workbench program (P48201). You can set up these codes to help you limit your search for work orders. For example, you can set up category code 2 as a work order failure code to indicate reasons for equipment failure. You can then set up codes to indicate equipment failure due to the following: Operator error Design flaw Lubrication or cooling problem 52
Work Order Detail Specifications Codes (00/RT) Use work order detail specifications codes to organize the descriptive information that you enter and track for your work orders. Work order detail specifications codes organize the descriptive information that you enter for your work orders, such as S for safety provisions and E for equipment downtime. For example, you might set up work order detail specifications to include the following types of information: Tool and equipment instructions Safety provisions Equipment downtime Work Order Databases (00/WD) Work order databases group supplemental data types for work orders, such as E for engineering change orders. Setting Up Standard Procedures You can set up codes and text to describe standard procedures for your work orders. For example, you can do the following: Designate a specific procedure for a work order or group of work orders. Provide a list of instructions to complete a work order. Include messages for work orders. For example, you might set up a code called 1000 for a 1000-hour maintenance inspection. For the 1000 code, you can enter text to describe procedures, such as checking coolant levels and adjusting belt tension. To avoid retyping similar procedures for every work order, you can also copy the appropriate message text from another procedure. After you set up standard procedures, you can assign them to the appropriate work orders. To set up standard procedures Use one of the following navigations: For the Work Orders system, choose Standard Procedures from the Work Order Setup menu (G4841). For the Product Data Management system, choose Standard Procedure Descriptions from the Product Data Management Setup menu (G3041).

Text Column Display 1 = 60 Column Display 2 = 80 Column Display Setting Up Default Managers and Supervisors You can set up address book information so that certain managers and supervisors appear by default on work orders. This default information is based on any combination of the first three work order category codes that appear on the Enter Work Orders form. The system automatically enters address book values in the following fields: ANPA (Supervisor) ANSA (Manager) You can set up as many versions of default managers and supervisors as you need. For example, assume that you have defined work order category code 02 as the failure code. You can assign a specific manager and supervisor to every work order that has a failure code of F1 - Improper Start-up or Operation. You can assign another manager and supervisor to every work order that has a failure code of F2 - Improper Installation or Repair. Prerequisite Set the processing options for the Work Order Entry (P48201) and Project Setup (P48015) programs to use default values for the manager and supervisor address book numbers. 55
To set up default managers and supervisors From the Work Order Setup menu (G4841), choose Work With Work Order Default Codes. 1. On Work With Work Order Default Codes, click Add. Note 2.

Setting Up Approvals for Work Orders You can control approvals for work orders by establishing activity rules and approval routing and setting up user profiles. Use activity rules to specify the status of a work order at any point in the life cycle. Use approval routing to notify individuals when a work order requires his or her approval. You must set up user profiles for all individuals who are designated to approve work orders. Setting Up Activity Rules for Work Orders For work orders, use activity rules to: Specify the status of a work order at any point in the life cycle. Select work orders for certain procedures. Prepare reports that are based on the current status of a work order. Change the PM status when the work order changes status. Specify whether the work order is active or inactive at a particular status. Specify who has the authority to update claims at a certain status (for warranty claims and supplier recovery claims). You can define activity rules that differ by document type (such as engineering change orders) and classification (such as rework orders). You must set up a reject code as the last status for any set of activity rules that use an approval process. To set up activity rules for work orders Use one of the following navigations: For the Work Orders system, choose Work Order Activity Rules from the Work Order Setup menu (G4841). For the Service Management system, choose Work Order Activity Rules from the Warranty Claim Setup menu (G1747) or from the Supplier Recovery Setup menu (G1748). 1.

To define the activity rules for this classification of work orders, complete any of the following fields for each activity rule that you need to define: WO Status Next Status Allowed Status 1 Allowed Status 2 Allowed Status 3 Allowed Status 4 Allowed Status 5 Note Each record accounts for a specific rule. You must set up status codes for work orders on Work Order Activity Rules before you can use them in the Next Status field or Allowed Status fields. 58
Caution On Work Order Activity Rules, do not delete a status code that you have also defined as a next status or other allowed status. 4. For each rule that you defined, complete the following field: Edit Authority For warranty claims and supplier recovery claims, the value in this field specifies who has the authority to update claims that have a certain status. 5. For each rule that you defined, complete any of the following optional fields: Subledger Inactive Maint. Status Maintenance Status is used only for equipment. Lock Flag 6. To assign a reject status to a rule, choose the appropriate rule, and then choose Reject Status from the Row menu. Note Reject status is necessary only if you will use an approval process. 7. On Reject Status, complete the following field and click OK: Reject Status 8. Click OK again. 9. On Work Order Activity Rules, click OK. 59
Setting Up Approval Routes for Work Orders You can use address book numbers to create various approval routes for individuals who need to be notified when a work order requires his or her approval. You can establish specific approval routes based on approval type and monetary amount. You can also establish specific approval routes based on the following: Note Organizational structure Work order amount For Capital Asset Management, approval routes for work orders are available only with a PeopleSoft EnterpriseOne workflow process. To set up approval routes for work orders From the Workflow Management Setup menu (G0241), choose Group Revisions. 1. On Work With Distribution Lists, click Add. 2.

Enter the default Structure Type 2.) Enter the Version of Organizational Structure Revisions to call. If left blank version ZJDE0001 will be used. Setting Up User Profiles You must set up user profiles for all individuals who are designated to approve work orders. When an approver enters a password to complete the approval process, the system validates the password against the employee address book number that you set up in the approver's user profile. The system uses the User ID number to verify that the address book number is valid for the approver. The system uses the approver's address book number to send electronic mail messages that are associated with work order approvals and to define the work order approval routing. 61
To set up user profiles From the System Administration Tools menu (GH9011), choose User Profiles. 1. On Work With User Profiles, to locate a user, click Find to select from a list or complete the following field and click Find: User / Role 2. Choose the appropriate user and click Select. 3.

Click OK. Processing Options for User Profile Revisions (P0092) A/B Validation Enter a '1' to enable editing on address book number against the F0101. Setting Up Formats for Record Types You use record types to organize the detail information that you track for work orders. For example, you can organize information such as original task description, tools required, and safety provisions. The format that you set up determines how the system displays the information. For each record type that you use, you can specify a text format or a format that includes text with three columns. The columnar format is particularly useful when you need to organize and track more than one type of information within a record type. For example, you can set up a record type for required tools and choose a three-column format to distinguish tools that are needed for different procedures, such as the following: Setup Production Teardown and cleanup When you use the format for text plus three columns, you must specify at least one of the column headings. Formats that are all text do not include headings. If you specify even one column heading for a record type, the system changes the format to text plus three columns. If you change the format of a record type after you assign it to one or more work orders, the system updates the format of that record type for all work orders. 62
You can review record types, formats, and column headings in either of the following ways: Note From the Project Task Details program (P48014), choose Record Type from the Form menu on the Enter Work Orders form From the Enter/Change Order program (P48013), choose Record Type Review from the Form menu on the Work Order Details form. You must set up the following record types for Capital Asset Management: Maintenance Loops Associated PMs Prerequisite Set up work order record types. To set up formats for record types From the Work Order Setup menu (G4841), choose Detail Spec. (Specifications) Over Titles. 1. On Work With Record Types, click Add. 2. On Record Type Revisions, complete the following field: Record Type 3. To define text for column headings, complete the following fields, and then click OK: Sub Title 1 Sub Title 2 Sub Title 3 63
Setting Up Supplemental Data for Work Orders You can enter supplemental data to further define the work orders in your system. Such supplemental data is useful for reporting and tracking work order details that are not included in the record types, such as safety procedures. You set up and maintain supplemental data in work order databases. Work order databases are user defined codes (00/WD). For example, you might set up supplemental data for an engineering change order database. The data types might include detail types, pending orders, and so on. You can set up your system to validate that the values that you enter on supplemental data forms match the values that you set up in user defined code tables. If your specification data type does not relate to an existing user defined code or generic message code, you can set up a new user defined code table. It is recommended that you use systems 55 through 59, inclusive, to set up the new tables. User defined code tables that you set up for these systems are not modified during any reinstall processes. Prerequisite Set up a user defined codes table for work order databases for supplemental data. To set up supplemental data for work orders From the Work Orders Setup menu (G4841), choose Supplemental Data Setup. 1. On Work With Supplemental Database Setup, click Find. 2. Choose the appropriate database (such as WO, Work Order) and choose Work With Data Typ from the Row menu. 3. On Work With Data Types, click Add. 64

Setting Up Accounting Rules for Work Orders If you apply charges to work orders using the speed entry code on Time Accounting or Payroll forms, you must set up your system to distribute the charges to the proper object account. You set up these object accounts in the Accounting JE Rules - Labor/Billings/Equipment program (P069043). At a minimum, you must set up an object account for default company 00000. You can set up object accounts for other companies, as well. The system always searches for accounting rules by a specific company. If it does not find a company, the system applies rules according to the default company. Prerequisite Verify that you have installed at least one of the following systems: Workforce Management Foundation (system 05) Time Accounting (system 05T) Payroll (system 07) Canadian Payroll (system 77) See Also Setting Up AAIs for Labor, Billings, and Equipment Distribution in the Time and Labor Guide 66
Global Updates Use global update programs to update the work order information in your system or to make systemwide changes that affect all of your work orders. Updating the Phase and Equipment Number From the Advanced & Technical Operations menu (G4831), choose Update Phase/Equip No. in G/L. If you post work order transactions to the general ledger and then change the equipment number and the phase code on the work order, you should run this update to ensure that the Account Ledger table (F0911) reflects the most current work order information. You can use this program to change the phase code and equipment number on multiple work orders. You can also use this program to enter a value in the phase field on many general ledger transactions. When you select this update program, the system submits the job directly to batch processing. Prerequisite Back up the Work Order Master File table (F4801). Communicate to the users that no one should access or modify the F4801 table while you run this procedure. Purging Closed Work Orders From the Advanced & Technical Operations menu (G4831), choose Work Order Purge. You can purge work orders from your system to free space and to make your system operate more efficiently. After you purge a work order, it no longer exists in your system. When you run the Work Order Purge program, you use data selection to specify which work orders to purge from the Work Order Master File table (F4801) and the Work Order Instructions File table (F4802). Work orders must have a status of Complete before you can purge them. 67
Workflow Processes for Work Orders Workflow processes offer a powerful means of automating various components of the work order life cycle across your entire enterprise. Based on a set of procedural rules and triggering events, documents, information, and tasks pass efficiently from one participant to another for action, and minimal user involvement is required. For example, you can use a workflow process to do any of the following: Route a work order for approval Commit inventory to a work order Run the capacity plan for a work order Send messages to appropriate people regarding the progress of a work order In addition, the system enables you to do the following: Define any number of workflow processes, depending on your business needs Attach any workflow process to any given event within an application Execute conditional processing, which is logic that depends on supplied criteria, such as currency amount, status, and priority A workflow process contains activities and related subprocesses that are specific to a particular function that you want to automate. The Work Orders system includes predefined workflow processes that are specific to the work order life cycle. You can modify or add to these processes, if necessary. Typically, you need to customize workflow processes to meet the needs of your organization. An example of a predefined process for Work Orders is the process for work order approval. Note For any given setup task, demonstration data is provided. You can use the available data or customize it to meet your needs. 68
Workflow Terms and Concepts You do not need a comprehensive knowledge of the EnterpriseOne Workflow Tools system to set up and use workflow processes, but you must be familiar with the following terms and concepts: Workflow processes Workflow processes refer to processes that you have set up to be handled through scripted workflow. For each process that you define, you can do the following: Set up criteria that indicates the start and end of the process. Determine the workflow activities involved in the process, such as sending an approval message, calling an application, or launching a subprocess. Determine the relevant data that the system requires to complete the process. Determine the path, such as an approval route, that a process takes, and whether the process depends on some conditional value, such as work order status, amount, or date. Activity conditions determine the next workflow activity in the process. You can set up a hierarchy of processes by creating nested subprocesses so that one process calls another. This procedure is especially useful when you need to reuse components within other processes. For example, the initial workflow process for work orders determines the document type of the work order and calls other processes that are based on the document type, such as the process to determine the work order type. Routes Routes define the path along which a workflow process moves a work order. Depending on your needs, a route can be relatively simple and sequential, or increasingly complex, with joins or splits, parallel routing, iterative routing (such as a loop), and so on. Process rules Process rules define what information is to be routed and to whom. For example, you can set up rules that define conditions that a work order must meet before a workflow process advances the order to the next activity in the process, as well as rules that govern who receives an approval request. The system uses the following process rules: Activity conditions determine the next activity, based on information that you set up in an attribute data structure, such as work order status. Recipient rules determine the recipient to whom the system routes messages. As with routes, you determine the complexity of rules according to your needs. For example, you can set up logic by which a work order can progress to the next step only when predefined threshold values have been met. Workflow activities Workflow activities refer to the specific actions within a given process, such as sending a request for approval or committing inventory. In addition to the Start activity, which every process must include, you can attach other types of activities to a process, such as the following: Function Interactive application Batch application Run executable Message Halt process Process 69
Primary data structures The primary data structure contains the data that makes an instance of a process unique from another instance. In Work Orders, where workflow processes are set up primarily for events in the work order life cycle, the primary data structure typically consists of the work order number. To avoid system errors, do not use multiple data items within a data structure. Attribute data structures Attribute data structures contain all pieces of data that a given process and any activity within the process need to complete the workflow. Workflow management uses the attribute data structure to communicate between activities within a process. See Also Creating a Workflow Process in the EnterpriseOne Workflow Tools Guide for information about setting up and activating workflow processes 70

It represents a line item on the bill of activities for a product or customer. An example is the number of part numbers, which is used to measure the consumption of material-related activities by each product, material type, or component. The number of customer orders measures the consumption of orderentry activities by each customer. Sometimes an activity driver is used as an indicator of the output of an activity, such as the number of purchase orders that are prepared by the purchasing activity. See also cost object. The criteria by which an object progresses from a given point to the next in a flow. Actual costing uses predetermined cost components, but the costs are accumulated at the time that they occur throughout the production process.

The X coordinate of the location of an item in the warehouse. The system can use latitude, longitude, and height when suggesting locations for putaway, replenishment, and picking. The amount of time that is allotted to a tanker at berth to complete loading or discharging cargo. This time is usually expressed in running hours, and is fixed by prior agreement between the vessel owner and the company that is chartering the vessel. Laytime is stipulated in the charter, which states exactly the total of number of hours that are granted at both loading and unloading ports, and indicates whether such time is reversible. A statement of Seventy-Two Hours, Reversible means that a total of 72 hours is granted overall at both ports, and any time saved at one port can be applied as a credit at the other port. For example, if the vessel uses only 32 hours instead of 36 hours to load cargo, it can apply an additional four hours to the 36 hours allotted at the discharge port. Such considerations are important for purposes of computing demurrage. A series of zeros that certain facilities in PeopleSoft systems place in front of a value that is entered. This situation normally occurs when you enter a value that is smaller than the specified length of the field.

outturn overhead override conversion method package / package build package location package workbench packaged products pane/panel paper clip parent/child form The quantity of oil that is actually received into a buyer s storage tanks when a vessel is unloaded. For various reasons (vaporization, clingage to vessel tank walls, and so on), the amount of a product pumped into shore tankage at unloading is often less than the quantity originally loaded onto the vessel, as certified by the Bill of Lading. Under a delivered or CIF outturn transaction, the buyer pays only for the barrels actually turned out by the vessel into storage. When a buyer is paying CIF Bill of Lading figures, a loss of 0.5% of total cargo volume is considered normal. Losses in excess of 0.5%, however, are either chargeable to the seller or are covered by specialized insurance that covers partial, as well as total, loss of the cargo.
